After my lecture at the INSTIMA congres for students in 2010, i got the teaching vibe. Since then I regularly gave guest lectures at different schools & universities. In 2011 KH Leuven asked me to teach a specifically developed new class. We baptized it 'Phygital Marcom', designed for Banaba students (Bachelor after bachelor). Is it still about Kotler P's or more about P&L? What are relevant drivers in Marcom today & how can innovation & digital help grow your customer base? What's key in retail today and which trends are awaiting for the (very) near future? Are clients really that critical or are we just misunderstanding them and their objectives? I try to give insights in the whole process.

Paris, Ile De France, Fr

One of the most energetic and ambitious online platforms ever built in Europe offered a unique opportunity to manage a brand and one of the first large scale e-commerce websites in Belgium. As Marketing manager for Belgium I worked closely together with the Dutch branch and different agencies to build the brand on a short time. Although brilliant in its business model, it came too early for the conservative Belgian market and so Letsbuyit.com closed its Brussels office by the end of the year.
